Stung by a wasp

A wasp stung me yesterday afternoon. I was putting trash in our big rubbish bin outside, which has plants behind it that belongs to our neighbor. I didn’t notice the wasps busily constructing their nest on one of the plants. I just suddenly felt something on my right hand and I was in jabbing pain right away. I wasn’t able to sleep well throughout the night. It is swelling at the sight of the sting, reddish and it hurts. And right now, I can feel numbness.

When hubby came home later that afternoon, he sprayed the nest right away making sure that all of them couldn’t escape the spray. I think we got them all because this morning when I checked out the nest it was quiet and empty.

I have slight allergy to stings, a long time ago I got stung by a March fly on my right foot and I felt the same symptoms that I am having now. I could hardly even walk for days.
